housands of shoes were lined in a park and parking lot for sale in Hangzhou on Oct 14, 2007. At the beginning of October 2007, Typhoon Krosa lashed Hangzhou and caused severe flooding. Lots of shoes in shoe market soaked with water. The owner aired and sold the shoes in a nearby park at a lower price. Seeing many costomers were attracted to the park, other stores in the market sold their shoes too.
